The leaders of the demonic sects discuss a teleportation array and a mysterious illusion. Lady of Joy and the Celestial Killer Old Demon debate the origins of Nascent Soul Cultivators, while the Mansion Master of Xuan Snake subtly mocks them. Suddenly, two strangers, Master Xuan Yun and Ji Yuan, arrive. Master Xuan Yun claims to be an overseas Loose Cultivator from the desolate Quiet Sea, a revelation that piques the interest and suspicion of the assembled old demons.

"Regardless of where you come from, Daoist, coming to the Flaming Ash Desert at this time and arriving at this Blood Pool, you’re probably here for the treasure, aren’t you?"

Bone Nightmare Old Demon chuckled and said:

"There are many wolves and little meat on this Jiyuan Continent; it’s not even enough for us. Now you, Master Xuan Yun, jump out wanting a share... I’m afraid that’s unreasonable, isn’t it?"

Upon hearing this, Sky Fiend Old Demon immediately followed up:

"I agree with this. Daoist Xuan Yun, cultivation isn’t easy for you, so it’s best to retreat quickly to avoid harming the camaraderie here."

This was obviously a signal to drive people away.

The treasures here are already difficult for them to distribute internally, let alone to outsiders.

No matter how fiercely they fought before, they’ve now put aside their grievances and turned to unite against external forces.

Nightmare True Monarch glanced at the Blood Pool in the middle and smiled slightly, "For such a Supreme Treasure as the Sixth Transformation Blood Pool, it’s natural that those who see it share in it. Why must Daoists be so excessive?"

"So you’re insisting on not leaving, Master Xuan Yun?"

Bone Nightmare Old Demon seemed naturally opposed to his master, Nightmare True Monarch, even though it’s their first meeting, among these Nascent Soul cultivators here, his malice towards Nightmare True Monarch was the greatest.

Ji Yuan, as a bystander, could see this clearly, let alone Nightmare True Monarch himself.

These words seemed to ignite a long-held anger within him.

Originally somewhat kindly, he coldly glanced at Bone Nightmare Old Demon, "If I don’t leave, what will you do, Bone Nightmare?"

"Oh?"

Bone Nightmare Old Demon, upon hearing this, immediately stood up from the sand dune, crossing his hands in front and stretching them, smiling:

"It seems it’s been too long since I, Bone Nightmare, last acted. So much so that any Tom, Dick, or Harry thinks they can step on me?"

Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.

With someone willing to take charge, Sky Fiend Old Demon naturally remained silent.

Ji Yuan, standing behind Nightmare True Monarch, observed this master-disciple pair... Surely Nightmare True Monarch wouldn’t lose his composure over this?

After all this time, can’t they hold on a little longer?

Especially since the treasure within the Blood Pool hasn’t been obtained yet.

Despite everything being seemingly ready, he currently has nothing, yet he still intends to kill?

Just as Ji Yuan was puzzled, he saw the Soul Hall Master suddenly stand up, as if he had realized something, pointing at Nightmare True Monarch in shock, "You’re the one who almost killed True Monarch Bai Chui with the unfamiliar Nascent Soul!"

"What?!"

The Mansion Master of Xuan Snake finally spoke, his voice showing some surprise.

Upon hearing these words, Bone Nightmare Old Demon, who was about to act, immediately cleared his eyes.

Both are Early-stage Nascent Soul, yet this Master Xuan Yun has the ability to kill True Monarch Bai Chui.

What does this imply?

It implies that although he appears to be Early-stage Nascent Soul, his strength even among Mid-stage Nascent Soul ranks is exceptionally high.

Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly have the ability to kill fellow Nascent Soul cultivators of the same level.

Moreover, his opponent is not just any Nascent Soul cultivator, but one from Heavenly Work Valley among the Eight Holy Lands.

The battle escalated to the point where the opponent was forced to use the Supreme Treasure of their sect.

This also indicates that the Heavenly Work Valley is indeed bold, allowing True Monarch Bai Chui to bring the Supreme Treasure into Rashamon Sea... truly unafraid of losing both person and treasure.

"Heh."

Upon hearing this, Nightmare True Monarch glanced at Bone Nightmare Old Demon and coldly chuckled, "After all, there are always people who don’t see clearly. Since they can’t see, then I must help them open their eyes."

After speaking, no one knew what Secret Technique he employed.

Originally, his aura was that of Early-stage Nascent Soul, but abruptly it elevated to Mid-stage Nascent Soul.

And just like that, he calmly glanced over the cultivators present before his own cultivation level fell back to Early-stage Nascent Soul.

His face, originally with a stern smile, returned to tranquility.

He presented himself as someone who doesn’t provoke trouble but also doesn’t fear it.

However, his disruption made everyone present look at him with much more caution.

It even felt as if they had begrudgingly acknowledged him.

Ji Yuan watched from the side, learning exactly how to deal with these Nascent Soul monsters.

"Alright, I won’t make things difficult for you all."

Nightmare True Monarch smiled warmly as he spoke.

Taking a step forward, he raised his right hand, and a rope made of a green vine immediately appeared.

"I happened to acquire a Lingering Fragrance God-Sealing Vine. If we all hold this God-Sealing Vine together, along with the methods of fellow Daoists, we might not be unable to pass through this Illusion Realm."

As his voice fell, the Soul Hall Master quickly followed up:

"Isn’t that the one that stabilizes the mind the more cultivators use it, the better the effect?"

"Wasn’t this treasure said to have disappeared along with the Yin Ghost Sect long ago?"

Nightmare True Monarch chuckled warmly and said, "It’s gone from your Jiyuan Continent, but there are still some overseas."

As he said this, he glanced at the God-Sealing Vine in his hand and smiled:

"I snatched this from a Transformed Demon Beast, guaranteed authentic."

Transformed Demon Beast, comparable to Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators, and Nightmare True Monarch’s casual revelation indirectly disclosed his strength.

However...

Ji Yuan’s gaze fell on the speaking Soul Hall Master. This guy... seems conspicuously like an accomplice?

Before, when Bone Nightmare Old Demon was about to act, it was him who jumped out.

And now too.
